@Etinoxaurus I would say it's another word for a 991 but maybe a bit more specific to what they do.

InMySpareTime · 18/06/2022 09:28

@Etinoxaurus a mix of 991 and 997 but ends like 991.

Etinoxaurus · 18/06/2022 09:34

Thank you!
I solved Semantle #140 in 58 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 6.21. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #10. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 69.92 (999/1000). semantle.com/

I solved Semantle #140 in 80 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 8.20. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #53. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 53.78 (985/1000). semantle.com/

Got there in a weird way.

I solved Semantle #140 in 48 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 3.28. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #3. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 34.40 (849/1000). semantle.com/

That was very weird. A hint from reddit made me wonder if I had a different secret word again today Grin

I was going down a completely different track, even with relatively high greens.

Not played for a few days as I’ve been crazy busy and hate getting “Did not finish” if I run out of time or if I’m stuck trying to finish before I can go to sleep! Hint from here and had used hints to get into the higher 900s.

Got there in the end!

InMySpareTime · 19/06/2022 07:54

So very stuck today. I have a lot of greens but they're getting me nowhere. I'm going to step away for a bit, but if anyone has a clue from here I'd love some help.

SheilaFentiman · 19/06/2022 08:09

Nope, nope, absolute nope

i used hints to give me practically all of the top 10 after guessing 990, then I hit give up as they all seemed to be unrelated to each other.

Would never have got it!

SheilaFentiman · 19/06/2022 08:11

I think it’s broken today (puzzle 141). The word I would think is closest got a stone cold score.

chocolateavocado · 19/06/2022 08:19

I'm stuck as well - been on 977 since guess 4 - now at 60 guesses. Very frustrating

SheilaFentiman · 19/06/2022 08:32

Do you want a DM, @chocolateavocado

InMySpareTime · 19/06/2022 08:37

60 guesses is nothing, I got 995 a whopping 300 guesses ago. Eventually took a hint which was 996, nothing to do with any of my other greens and not helpful. Any pointers welcome.
I have more than these greens now but CBA to crop another screenshot.

squirrelnutkins1 · 19/06/2022 08:37

I gave up in the end! Stupid word!

Just looking through your words @InMySpareTime

squirrelnutkins1 · 19/06/2022 08:39

Add something to 728 and you'll be out your misery! @InMySpareTime

InMySpareTime · 19/06/2022 08:41

Thanks, that was tortuous! The word list is ridiculous today. 999 has nothing to do with the target.

I solved Semantle #141 in 369 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 10.41. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #42. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 18.09. semantle.com/

chocolateavocado · 19/06/2022 08:55

Thanks Shelia I got there in the end from Squirrels clue. I don't think I would have ever got there otherwise.

Inmysparertime - I feel your pain. I thought today was going to be a good one so was a bit disappointed.

I agree it seems broken today! Crazy list of nearest words.

I solved Semantle #141 in 85 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of -8.93. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #4. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 17.56. semantle.com/

LadyOfTheCanyon · 19/06/2022 09:09

That was a fucking shocker. I had to go and look at Reddit.

I solved Semantle #141 in 297 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 11.51. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #15. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 18.86. semantle.com/

Earlandmrsgrey · 19/06/2022 10:08

My advice is don't bother playing today.

Unless you get 728 (which is how I got it) and then you can at least play around with adding letters.

Seriously, don't bother. Plenty of other things to get on with instead!!!

MrsLargeEmbodied · 19/06/2022 10:25

also went to reddit - thanks for that suggestion
I solved Semantle #141 in 265 guesses. My first guess had a similarity of 16.95. My first word in the top 1000 was at guess #52. My penultimate guess had a similarity of 5.18. semantle.com/

MrsLargeEmbodied · 19/06/2022 10:27

agree with the list of words, absolutely crazy
